Eli Manning led the giants to a shocking victory over the Patriots in the SuperBowl today. The Patriots had gone 18-0 this season, steamrolling every team. But when pretty boy Tom Brady started getting hit by the best defensive line in football, he couldn’t handle it. The result was a Giants win 17-14.
Off to the wonderful Superbowl of Oz…
My prediction is New England Patriots 35- New York Giants 17.
Patriots have an 85% chance of winning the game.

My talented professional chef friend Ian Coleman came over for one of our Monday night dinner’s a while back and prepared the best beef tartare I have ever tasted. Beef tartare is a mix of three different types of raw beef (sorry Ian, I can’t remember which cuts) combined with various sauces and seasonings till it reaches perfection. Ian has been trying to teach me how to cook better at these dinners, but I usually end up sitting in awe as he makes the most savory dishes of my life. Beef tartare is usually an appetizer, but I wanted to learn how to make it so we had it as our main course. Ian made several pounds of beef tartare and soft boiled eggs to eat with it on top of bread cracker things.
Beef tartare is now one of my favorite dishes. The group of us had some great fun.
